Bring Them Down (15)


  • Gloucester Guildhall 23 Eastgate Street Gloucester United Kingdom (map)

Dir: Christopher Andrews | Ireland, UK, Belgium | 2024 | 105 mins | Some subtitles

Cast | Christopher Abbott, Barry Keoghan, Colm Meaney

Oscar nominee Barry Keoghan (Saltburn, The Banshees of Inisherin) and Christopher Abbott (Poor Things, HBO’s Girls) play familial rivals trapped by circumstance in Christopher Andrews’ blood-soaked drama.

The last son of a shepherding family, Michael (Abbott) lives with his ailing father Ray (Colm Meaney). When a simmering conflict with rival farmer Gary (Paul Ready) and his son Jack (Keoghan) escalates, powered by past traumas, a devastating chain of events puts both families on a collision course.

Set in a rural Ireland every bit as harsh and unyielding as the Old West, Bring Them Down is both a brutal vision of toxic masculinity and a taut and mournful lament about people unable to break a generations-old cycle of harm. With a shifting perspective that constantly deepens our sense of the story, it boasts terrific turns from both Abbott and Keoghan.

Please note: the screening on Thursday 13th March will include descriptive subtitles.
